 The Anambra State Chapter of the African Democratic Congress ADC has decried the worsening economic and security situation in Anambra State and Nigeria as a whole. The party said this during its state congress to elect new leaders for the party. Addressing party members shortly after the exercise, the national chairman of the party, Ralph Walshu, said that Nigeria can hardly get its rise educationally, economically, and the area of employment generation with the current leadership, assuring that the era of whining and complaining in Anambra and Nigeria is over as the ADC is set to usher in the orchestra to showcase the superpower, economic development, and progressive society that have been denied Nigeria and Nigerians. When the people aligned with us in the ADC to usher in the orchestra to showcase the superpower, economic development, and progressive society that have been denied our people and country, we in the ADC have envisioned for Nigeria and the various states within the country clear trajectories of development so that no one is left behind. ADC has just started by, you know, displaying a kind of, let me say, prejudice shift from what used to be. If you look at the people that came today, I can comfortably tell you that all of them came with their own personal timing on their own. Nobody sponsored them. There is not this issue of always seeing a kind of hired crowd. All the people you see today are bona fide members of the ADC. And I think it's a very ineffective state institution. It's very ineffective. And part of the problems of our democracy is being caused by NEC. So if we were to do elections and have elections, the way democracy should be, by now the Nigerian democracy will be beyond election. Up to today, we've not gotten our election right. They're part of the problem of our democracy. 22 years after we embarked into this journey, by now we're supposed to have crossed that first hurdle of having a credible election. Unfortunately, we have not. But democracy is not about only about election. Democracy is about the government. The government that is put together by the people, by the people it represents. But so far, NEC has made it not to be like that. It's unfortunate.
